Depends on what your window looks like imo. The devils for example shouldn’t be going all in imo. The focus should be prolonging the window as much as possible to get as many quality chances over the life of Jacks contract. Wait out the Capitals, Islanders, and Penguins who are all old with very limited prospect pools. Wait out the aging rags, wait out the canes if possible.



Carolina tho may be a team that could go all in this year or next. Teams getting older and older and closer to free agency and at some point they’ve gotta go for it. This imo feels like their best chance this year.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LIRIK</b></div><div>This is a bad ranking list, but that could be close to the right order when comes draft day.

Helenius could be picked as high as 5 if teams consider him a future top 6 center.

Looking at last year, Silayev ahead of Demidov is likely. Teams seems to value big defenseman over small skilled wingers. Rightfully imo.

After WJC, Brandsegg Nygard should be picked ahead of Hemming, but it'll depend on the remaining of the season. They're both similar players.

Scoring wingers playing on their offside can easily put up points on bigger european ice. Doesn't always translate well into the NHL. Could explain why Chernyshov is low.</div></div>

Last season Chernyshov was really good this year is quite the opposite. This shows that scouts don't look too closely at last year's play.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LIRIK</b></div><div>Great list. Always looking forward to read your rankings and mock drafts. Love the comparable and the reasoning.

Eiserman is about to break Caufield's goal record in the USHL without anything close to Hughes or Zegras as linemates. He's still top 3 imo.

I think Dickinson is still ahead of Buium even after WJC. Even if Buium has better offensize creativity, Dickinson is better in every other category.

I agree Silayev talent wise is out of the top 10, but a team will reach for him just like Arizona did with Simashev last year.

Parekh defensive plays has me worried too, but his offensive upside and the fact that he's RHD push him in the top 15.</div></div>

Like said, goal-scoring is undeniable. But I really don't like his skating, out of the people in my top 10, Eiserman's skating is the worst.

Buium is ahead of him on my board, but I bet Dickinson will be selected first because of size.

I 100% agree with you on your take on Silayev.

Parekh gives me Dragicevic vibes. I'm not saying that he will fall out of the first round, but he will fall slightly in the draft.
